MK-Motorsport celebrates its 40th anniversary

and is hosting a SimRacing competition together with its partner SimRacingSystems

On the 1st of July 2018 MK-Motorsport celebrates its 40th anniversary. To celebrate this event, MK-Motorsport and SimRacingSystems are holding an online multiplayer multi-week SimRacing competition where you can win attractive prizes.

MK-Motorsport has been synonymous with the refinement of BMW automobiles for 40 years. The experience and victories accumulated from numerous racing events and competitions always flow into the development of new MK-Performance components for our customers. MK-Motorsport brings motorsports to life, from the racetrack to the road - for customers in Germany, Europe and around the world.

MK-Performance in Assetto Corsa®

Our DTM Champion is playable in the best racing simulator available on the market. With perfection and attention to detail, our legendary MK-Motorsport BMW M3 E30 is now digitally immortalized. Thank you KUNOS SIMULAZIONI!

The MK-Motorsport BMW M3 E30 Group A

DTM Champion Kurt Thiim made a furious comeback on the Nürburgring in 1988 with our MK-E30. Kurt Thiim immediately secured the overall victory of the third DTM round with his first effort for the team MK-Motorsport. Here he left easily all the professional major manufacturer teams behind!

1000 km of Hockenheim 1985

Our BMW M1 Procar with its white BaeuerleFarben livery not only raced successfully in Hockenheim, but was also competing at the 1000 km of Nürburgring and the 24h of Le Mans 1986.

"40 Years Anniversary Competizione" on Assetto Corsa®

Experience the golden times of the DTM! Follow in the footsteps of DTM Champion Kurt Thiim in the "40 Years Anniversary Competizione" and drive our legendary MK-Motorsport BMW M3 E30. Kunos Simulazioni put this winning car in the right spotlight. The driving physics, the response, the sound ... with this car, Kurt Thiim was able to win the overall victory in the third round of the DTM at the Nürburgring in 1988 and could celebrate a furious comeback with his simultaneous return to the DTM!

Historical note: the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI in Assetto Corsa have never met the MK-E30 on the racetrack in the DTM. Nevertheless, both are playable in this event! The fun for all is our main focus. So give everything to show who the real master of the track is! ;-)
